Overall - Above Average
Good, Clean & tidy room with basic amenities. Bed was reasonably comfortable with fan/aircon. Check-in/out was good, friendly & efficient. Price was fair. Quiet. Transportation is at door step or a short walk to most localised places. Breakfast good price. Would stay again. Recommend.

Hotel near main station
The hotel was very near the main station - easy to walk to and back. It clearly had a long history, but the rooms need refurbishing. Ours had sticky carpets and seriously dated decor, however the room was big and there was a kettle and complimentary tea and coffee.

Great Location
Close to Central station, light rail, and bus lines, it’s so easy to navigate Sydney from here. Having Chinatown on the doorstep makes for amazing food choices too. Staff are always friendly and helpful and the hotel rooms are surprisingly quiet given the high traffic area. We love staying at the Great Southern.

Great find!
For the price this was a perfect place to stay, so well located and everything in the room I needed. I would definitely stay here again when in Sydney, a real find!

Reasonable hotel in a great location
Really friendly check-in, check-out staff at reception. I have stayed there many times for its proximity to Central Station and the light rail and, unlike at a lot of more "up-market" hotels, I have never had to wait for a room if I have arrived before check-in time. It's always clean and comfortable, there are mugs not cups for your drinks, and good television coverage (none of this having to stream TV channels from your own device). My only minor gripe is that my in-room safe was at. the bottom of the wardrobe - a bit hard to access for those of us of a certain age and anyone with limited mobility.

lackluster hotel in a convenient neighborhood
The bed was old and uncomfortable. The room was very small. There were no comfortable chairs anywhere in the hotel. No microwave. Small refrigerator on the floor. Why do hotels put small refrigerators on the floor??? There is a nice guest laundry but the staff would not provide coins for the laundry machines.

Great location, good value
Much better than I expected and very pleased with the early availability of my room, friendliness of all staff, good breakfast offer in the restaurant and a busy public bar downstairs. Lovely old-world feel in the downstairs lobby area. I chose a small room with no housekeeping, but it was more than comfortable with a spacious bathroom and the ability to replenish items from reception. Two lifts meant a speedy ride (I was on 6th floor) and very quiet (a request). Also had dinner in the restaurant one of the evenings and will consider a return on my next trip to Sydney. Superbly located about a 7-minute walk from Central Station, plus a tram stop across the street.
